Hi HappyHat,
Glad to hear from you. How old are your older kids? Are they out of the house yet?

I'm 45, married, and kidless. Our kids are all grown. They are my son, 25; my daughter, 22; dh's son, 20, and dh's son, 18. Plus my son has given us a granddaughter.

We move to North Carolina last August. The kids and most of my family are back in WI and MN. I miss them all terribly.

About me: 246 lbs. Started ATkins today, although was on it for around a year, about one year ago. I'm looking forward to feeling good and getting all this weight off.

I used to live in Killeen TX in the mid 80s with my first husband. We were Army at Ft. Hood. I never wanted to go to TX due to all the spiders and snakes I heard about. But I loved TX, just like I loved all the placed I have ever lived.

How long have you been LCing. Which plan are you on? Atkins also?

God's blessings to you,
Randi
